COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT:
While ministering among the various ethnic groups, MVM realized the need to work towards their social upliftment. Hence in partnership with other organization MVM undertook various development programmes such as adult literacy, social awareness, self-employment, health and hygiene. Relief work is also done whenever the need arises. Presently development work is carried out focusing on the Kolams of Yavatmal District who are still socially ostracized.
